Outfit: 18/52

ABOUT THE OUTFIT:

Dress (similar)/Forever 21; Vest/JCPenney; Purse/Secondhand; Shoes/

I have good news! Last Tuesday, I applied to a local, family-owned bakery to be a cake decorator that works with fondant and the very next day, I got a call saying to come in Monday at two for an audition! From what I've learned from a friend of a friend who works there, it's a pretty laid-back working environment as far as dress code so I don't necessarily need to wear pants and a button-up. As a matter of fact, the owner wants someone really artistic so I wanted to wear an outfit that showed off my creative side. 

I felt like I needed something new, so me and Madeleine went shopping on Friday afternoon/night where I bought a couple things I had been wanting, including this dress and vest (I'm planning to do a June Haul post at the end of the month if you want to know about the rest of the stuff I got). The vest I'm wearing is a large and had ties on it that I cut off because they were at a weird level (like on the model on the website--what is up with the mid-boob ties?), but it fits pretty well. I told Madeleine I thought it would feel strange if I had been able to get my actual size. The dress is a 2X. Normally I wear a bigger size in dresses from Forever 21, but this fabric made it alright for me to size down. In fact, I should've sized down on the blue dress from one of my last outfits. This outfit has the perfect mixture of bohemian and polished that I've been searching for. I feel like it's perfect for this particular job audition. 

Wish me luck!
